Jim Sun- dean learned she just had escaped an abductor. When he went to the 1obby for her key she disappeared and, returning, he stumbled over a murdered man in his corridor, Then he goes into the court to search for the murderer, whom he suspects to be Lovschicm, manager of the hotel, and is shot at five times. The murdered man_seems to have been stabbed with the sword from the figure on a huge clock in Sundean’s room ; the French police demand that he hold maself ready Jor investigation, Just then there is a commotion down the hall, Furious, Sundean protests this finai affront, Chaptet 12 THE APPARITION “QMH!” said Sue Tal “Don’t an ly. tagonize them.” Voices and the commotion covered her whisper. “They are inclined to look favor- ably upon you because you told of the clock sword, although one of them thinks it may have been a very clever ruse o induce that very effec are still doubtful.

Alone, I thought wearily, at last. I hoped most heartily there would be no more intruders. To make sure of it I went to the door. But Sue had been right; there was no key and no bolt. I moved the table against the door in such § manner that anyone trying to enter would immediately wake me. I must bhave gone straight to sleep from very weariness. Once | woke with an immediate recollection of where I was and what had hap- pened, and the impression that there was a sound like sobbing somewhere in that deserted wing. But I must have sunk back into sleep at once, for in the morning | it was only a faint recollection. The morning was cold and the wind was still blowing. I woke late, | and when I rang for coffee and Mar- | cel brought it 1 asked him what bad been done, “Nothing, monsieur,” he said. He looked tired and hollow-eyed but his eyes were still excited. “The po- lice were here again but have gome. They are making inquiry.” That was a curious day. Only Lovschiem was about when I went downstairs—Lovschiem and his white cockatoo. The cockatoo greeted me with a cluck and looked with interest at the cigarette in my {hand, and Lovschiem said good- | mo.ning unctuously and was I go- | ing for a walk. He made it clear ut‘ once that, to him at least, oz? some- | what strained relation of the previ- | ous night was a thing forgotten, | “A little fresh air” I said. there any news?” HERE was, he said, no news. He looked bad in the clear morning light: dark and liverish; but he was still suave. ‘Did you have a good sleep?” he asked too pleasantly and with an oily effect of rubbing his hands to- gether which in actuality he was | not doing at all, one hand being en- zaged in stroking the whkite neck of | the cockatoo. Pucei was watching my hand | with his head on one side and ap | peared to be meditating as to the taste and biteable qualities -of cigarettes. 1 drew my hand away and replied shortly and honestly | that 1 had slept very well, upcr ch Lovschiem looked incop ently disappointed. | “‘Americans,” he said, forgetting for the moment his own “afe like the British.

Instead I followed the road | to the bridge, walked half across it, found a spot sheltered from the wind and stood there, leaning against the railing and watching the water flowing below, or look- ing at the white, clean-swept old nlace, with its stretch of white wall that the Romans had built, and its close-huddled peaks and red roofs. and I smoked and tried to think out the grisly puzzle of the night. After a while I walked sorae, but “Is claims, anything in particular, and it was not until about lunch time when I turned again into the hotel that 1 happened to look around and dis- cover a blue-caped figure at a dis- creet distance. 1 did not know or care how loug he had been follow- | ing me, but I must say it gave me a rather chilly sensation up my spine. And the edge of my appetite was a little dulled when I discovered that during my absence my room and my bags had been thoroughly searched, and that with no attempt at concealment, which could only mean the police. I ate alone in the chilly dining room with Marcel serving me a really excellent lunch. Father Ro- bart had apparently eaten early, for his table had been cleared. Mrs. Byng and Sue Tally did not appear. 1 lingered for some time in a not unnatural wish to see her again. She played so large and important a part in the train of surmise and supposition that had set itself go- ing in my mind that I wanted very much to see her, and that in the cool and logical and unemotional light of day. It was not, however, until toward evening that I saw her again, and then she was with David Lorn, and | they were talking. (Copyright, 1933, Mignon G.

Carter called a mass meeting of the citizens of Ju- neau for the 28th to consider the Fourth of July celebration to be held here. The consensus of opin- ion in the city was that the cele- bration should outclass anything of the kind ever held here and the| meeting was to be the first step in making the preparations. Property valtues in Juneau dur- ig the previous twelve months had increased over half a million dol- lars according to city assessor W. C. Irish, who had completed the assessment rolls. An editorial quoted a steamship man of Seattle who had just re- turned from a visit to the Scandi- navian Peninsula as saying that tens of thousands of Scandin..~ans would came to the Pacific North- west to make their homes upon the opening of the Panama Canal The editorial went on to say that Alaska should get a share of this immigration as the Scandinavians wers the kind of peoples wanted here because of the similarity of the climates of Alaska and the Scandinavian countries and the fact that they make good citi- zens, fishermen, lumbermen, min- U AR PP T 130D N R 2 23 ST PROFESSIONAL ,!
